The dragon egg that has been raised for thousands of years has broken its shell

The two clans of dragon and phoenix are not far apart, but to go to the territory of the dragon clan, one must pass through a very narrow natural barrier, which is also the only entrance of the dragon clan.

When Su Muluo rushed to the natural barrier, he saw a person lying on the ground from a distance, and was startled.

However, he soon discovered that there was not only one person lying on the ground, but several people. They were all members of the dragon clan. Although they were not seriously injured, they also passed out and temporarily lost their ability to move.

——Not only that, but among the people who fell on the ground stood a man in black with dark golden eyes, tall and straight, with a cold face... But after seeing Su Mu, his expression suddenly changed .

"Phoenix," the man walked up to Su Muluo quickly, took his hand, and said aggrievedly, "They bullied me."

Su Muluo: "..."

He was very familiar with the dark golden eyes and voice of the man in front of him, but he was not so familiar with the man's appearance and body shape.

If he remembers correctly, before he was captured by the Dragon Clan, the little dragon he raised...was still in the size of a teenager.

Why did it become so big in a blink of an eye? ? ?

During Su Muluo's brief astonishment, Long Ling had already hugged his waist and buried his face in his shoulder socket.

Long Ling often did this action when he was a teenager, and Su Muluo was also used to it, subconsciously touching Long Ling's head... Only then did he realize that his dragon was half a head taller than him when he grew up.

It's a big dragon.

Su Muluo thought in his heart, and said, "Why did you suddenly become bigger?"

Long Ling said: "I don't know... I just want to go back to Fenghuang, but they won't let me, and they want to do something to me." He paused, and then said: "During the fight, I felt a force in my body It came out, and when it reacted, it became like this.”

Su Muluo looked at him left and right, and said, "Then are you injured? Or is there any discomfort?"

Long Ling shook his head, although he was not injured, he rubbed against Su Muluo unhappily, and said, "Fenghuang, they said that I was an ominous omen, they wanted to lock me up, and even wanted to kill me—but Am I really?"

Su Muluo turned cold when he heard this, and said, "Of course you are not. Don't worry, they can't touch you with me here."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Sha, the patriarch of the Dragon Clan, rushed over.

He first glanced at his clansman who was lying on the ground, frowned slightly, then looked at Su Muluo and Long Ling beside him - when his eyes fell on the enlarged Long Ling, he was obviously stunned for a moment.

Immediately he reacted quickly, and said coldly: "Fenghuang, am I right? He is indeed different from ordinary people, otherwise how could he grow so fast?"

"But he has never hurt anyone. If you didn't want to hurt him this time, he wouldn't do it." Su Muluo also said indifferently, "Just because he is a black dragon that has never appeared in the Dragon Clan, you think he is a black dragon." Unknown, even killing him, it would be too much."

Fu Sha obviously thought up his excuses on the way here, and said: "I don't need to kill him, but he is a hidden danger after all. I want to bring him back to the Dragon Clan and observe for a long time."

Just after he finished speaking, Long Ling said, "Fenghuang, I'm not going!"

After speaking, he tightened the corner of Su Muluo's clothes.

Su Muluo said gently: "I won't let you go."

He habitually touched Long Ling's head again, only to realize that the man in front of him was no longer a teenager after he finished touching. His hand paused, and Long Ling grabbed it immediately.

The eyes of the two met for a brief second, Su Muluo turned his head and said to Fu Sha: "Let him stay with me, and I can also observe him."

Fu Sha frowned, and said, "Feng—"

"From the beginning to the end, the black dragon is an ominous sign, which is your own claim, and it has no basis at all." Su Muluo interrupted directly, "You can use such words to convince your clansmen, but in my case, it is impossible. "

"Besides, you haven't answered my previous question—are you targeting him for your own people, or for your own selfishness?"

"..."

Just like before, when Su Muluo asked this sentence, Fu Cha fell silent again.

Su Muluo ignored him, took Long Ling's hand and left.And Fu Cha looked at their clasped hands... his face sank a little.

-

On the way back to the Phoenix territory, Su Muluo frequently cast his eyes on the dragon beside him.

Long Ling said: "Phoenix is ​​peeping at me."

Su Muluo: "...I am obviously looking at it openly."

Long Ling let out an "oh", and said a little proudly, "Does Phoenix think I'm pretty?"

Su Muluo didn't say a word, thinking it was pretty.

Then he said, "You really don't feel any discomfort on your body?"

Long Ling shook his head and said, "No."

Su Muluo didn't speak again, just quietly looked at the dragon he raised.

Although he felt that the "ominous omen" that Fu Sha said was pure nonsense, his dragon was indeed different from other dragons in some ways, such as the intelligence in the egg, or the sudden growth...

Seeing Su Muluo looking at him in thought, Long Ling said: "Is Fenghuang thinking about what happened just now?" He didn't wait for Su Muluo to say anything, and said again: "I know, I am different from them in some ways, they don't want to It’s understandable to accept me.”

"—But because of this, I don't want to go to them either. Since they don't see me as a member of the clan, then I don't want to talk to them either."

Long Ling's tone was cold, but Su Muluo felt the sadness in his eyes.

Being rejected by the clansmen, and even being killed by the clansmen under an unknown name, this really hurt him.So even if he didn't show it, he was still sad.

After realizing this, Su Muluo said: "When I was just born, because I was the only white phoenix in the clan, I was isolated by the people around me for a while."

Long Ling was a little surprised when he heard the words: "But isn't Phoenix the strongest in the clan? He's still the clan leader."

"Yes," Su Muluo said, "So then I subdued those who isolated me, not only made them apologize to me, but also accepted them as my younger brothers, and drove them around like cattle for a long time. "

Long Ling: "!"

"So what I want to tell you is," Su Muluo said softly, "Just because you're different from others doesn't mean you're really different. Don't care about their opinions, and don't be influenced by them."

After he finished speaking, he smiled slightly at Long Ling again: "Besides, no matter what happens, I will be with you."

Long Ling looked at him, leaned over after a few seconds, and rubbed against him stickily.

"That's what Fenghuang said," Long Ling said with the corners of his mouth curled up, "So Fenghuang will marry me in the future, and he will even touch my feathers!"

Su Muluo: "???"

How did you jump here?

Immediately turned away from looking at Long Ling, and walked forward.

Long Ling chased after him, and said: "Fenghuang promised me that when I grow up, he will marry me and touch my feathers - I have grown up now!"

Su Muluo said expressionlessly: "When, why don't I remember."

Obviously, every time the dragon said such things, he would just throw the other party out.

"I don't care, Fenghuang didn't answer at that time, it was tacit consent!" Long Ling caught up with him, and held his hand tightly, refusing to let go, "I like Fenghuang the most, and I only like Fenghuang!"

Su Muluo turned to look at him and said, "Do you know what liking is?"

Long Ling: "I—"

"Patriarch!"

With a cry from a distance, a man in Tsing Yi rushed over with a few phoenixes.

The man was Shuang Li. He first looked at Su Muluo, who was safe and sound, and then at Long Ling next to him, and let out a "huh" in surprise: "Why have you grown so big all of a sudden!"

The few phoenixes also looked around Long Ling curiously. Unlike the dragon clan's targeting of Long Ling, they all watched Long Ling grow up from breaking the shell, so they were very kind to this little black dragon.

Su Muluo asked Shuangzhi, "Why did you bring someone out?"

Shuang Li said: "Isn't this afraid that you will be bullied by them, the patriarch, but it's fine, the Dragon Clan didn't embarrass you, right?"

A few people from the Dragon Clan disguised themselves as Su Muluo and took Long Ling away. Su Muluo rushed to the Dragon Clan immediately after learning about it. The speed was so fast that Frost Lily couldn’t catch up... So he could only go back and call his clansmen, Let's go to the Dragon Clan together.

Su Muluo shook his head and said, "No."

They returned to the Phoenix Territory. On the way, Su Muluo told them about Long Ling's changes. After hearing this, Shuang Li was surprised and said, "Isn't that the same as you, patriarch? You are the only Phoenix among us with the power of Nirvana. Then Does Long Ling also have special abilities?"

Su Muluo looked at Long Ling and said, "I haven't found it yet, but his strength seems to be much stronger than other dragons."

After all, Long Ling repelled so many dragons with his own strength just now, and he was still unscathed, which is enough to show his strength.

After hearing this, Long Ling blinked and said, "So Phoenix married—"

Su Muluo immediately covered his mouth with his hands.

Long Ling: "..."

Shuangchen coughed vigorously and said, "By the way, patriarch, the elder has something to look for you."

Su Muluo nodded and said: "Then you take him back first, I'm leaving."

He turned and walked to another place, Long Ling wanted to follow, but was stopped by Shuang Li.

"The elder wants to find the patriarch, it may be something important." Shuang Li said, "Come with me, now that you have grown up, let Xiaoshu make you some new clothes."

Long Ling's gaze followed Su Muluo's back until Su Muluo disappeared before his eyes, then nodded and said, "Okay."

The elder of the Phoenix clan is a red phoenix, and also the oldest Phoenix in the clan. Su Muluo remembered that he was isolated by some people when he was young, and it was the elder who took him by his side to protect him. , he has always had a kind of closeness and attachment to the elder.

At this moment, the elder called him to him, stared at him silently for a long time, and sighed.

Su Muluo didn't understand why the elder sighed, an ominous premonition welled up in his heart, and said, "Elder, did something happen?"

"...I got a prophecy," said the elder, "In the near future, disaster may befall the Phoenix Clan."

Unknown premonition experience, Su Muluo frowned, said: "What is the disaster?" Thinking of what happened recently, he added: "Is it related to the Dragon Clan?"

The elder shook his head and said: "It has nothing to do with them, but... it has something to do with the Dao of Heaven."

When he said the word "Tiandao", he deliberately lowered his volume and raised his finger to point upwards.

Su Muluo was surprised: "The way of heaven...what is it?"

He still wanted to ask for more details, but the elder didn't continue, he just stroked his hair, and after a while, he said slowly, "Go back."

"The way of heaven is irreversible, we can only follow the way of heaven. The only variable is still thousands of years later."

"By then, you'll know."

"..."

When Su Muluo left, he still felt that the eyes of the elders had been following him, just like when he was a child.

It's just that he was full of doubts, but he couldn't get an answer.

The elder said that the variable is in thousands of years...but that is too long.

Even he is not yet a thousand years old.

Just when Su Muluo was contemplating, he saw Shuangzhi standing hesitantly not far from him, as if he wanted to say something.

He said, "What's wrong?"

"Ahem, Patriarch," Shuang Li said, "The elder called you over, did he ask you about the prayer ceremony?"

Su Muluo was silent for a second, then shook his head and said, "No, it's something else."

He obviously didn't want to say more, Shuang Li didn't ask, and said: "Then... the prayer ceremony will start in two months, patriarch, do you have someone in charge?"

The prayer ceremony is a tradition of the Phoenix family, once every three years, on this day, all Phoenixes will come to pray to the sky and hold a grand banquet at the same time.

Seeing his expectant look, Su Muluo asked curiously, "Why, do you want to be in charge this time?" Every prayer ceremony will be organized by a special person, but Shuangchen has always been troublesome before, and has never participated in it. .

Shuang Li gave a "cough cough" and said, "It's like this, I think..." After he finished speaking, he paused for a few seconds, then glanced back.

Su Muluo looked over - and saw a girl in red standing in front of a small shop, holding a soft tailor's ruler, gesturing on Long Ling's body.

It was Elder Fenghuang's granddaughter, Yingxu, who opened a small clothing store and usually sent clothes to Shuangli.

When Su Muluo saw Shuangzhi's eyes, he understood what he meant, and couldn't help joking: "Strange, didn't you say before that you wouldn't like girls like her?"

Frostgrass faltered and said: "Did I say it... No, right? Cough cough, anyway, patriarch, can you let me and her be in charge of this prayer ceremony?"

He looked at Su Muluo eagerly, Su Muluo thought for a while and asked, "Does she agree?"

Frost Quinoa looked back at Yingsu again.

Yingsu didn't know if she noticed Frost Li's gaze, she raised her head at this moment, looked at Shuang Li, and made a funny face at him.

Shuangyi immediately said: "She agreed! Patriarch, look how happy she is!"

Su Muluo: "..."

Su Muluo laughed and said, "Okay, it's up to you."

Frost Quinoa: "The Patriarch is so kind! Thank you, Patriarch!"

He happily walked towards Yingxi over there, and Long Ling also returned to Su Muluo at this time.

"Phoenix," he grabbed Su Mu's clothes and said, "What do you want to eat tonight?"

Su Muluo thought for a while, then said: "The vinegar fish tasted pretty good last time."

Long Ling curled up his lips and said, "Then Phoenix Kiss, I'll do it for you."

Su Muluo: "..."

Long Ling: "Or let me kiss Phoenix!"

Su Muluo: "..."

He threw off Long Ling's sleeve, ignored him, and went back.

For the next few days, the Phoenix Clan lived peacefully.Su Muluo knew that there would be disasters for them, but because of the elder's unhurried attitude, he only felt that it should be a disaster that could be resolved. Even if it was serious, as long as he was prepared, he could lead the Phoenix family through—

But he didn't expect that this disaster was brought down by the way of heaven, it couldn't be violated, it couldn't be resolved, and he couldn't do anything about it.

That was tens of thousands of thunderbolts crashing down, and the Phoenix family was wiped out in this torrent of thunderstorms... just like that.
